1. A system comprising:

  • one or more processors; and

    memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to;

    collect, by a sensor data collection device of the system, sensor data from sensors associated with a computing device within a vehicle during a first window of time and using a polling frequency, wherein the sensor data comprises information relating to at least a location, a speed, and an acceleration of the vehicle;

    process, by a sensor data processing device of the system, the sensor data, wherein processing comprises removing one or more duplicate data points from the sensor data and generating processed sensor data;

    determine, by a braking event classification device of the system and based on the sensor data and the processed sensor data, to classify a second window of time as a braking event; and

    generate and transmit, by a braking event notification device of the system, a notification relating to the braking event of the vehicle to at least one of;

    a second computing device within a first predetermined distance of the vehicle or a second vehicle within a second predetermined distance of the vehicle.
